Lately Lyrics By Stevie Wonder

    lately i have had the strangest feeling
    with no vivid reason here to find
    yet the thought of losing you’s been hanging
    ’round my mind

    far more frequently you’re wearing perfume
    with you say no special place to go
    but when i ask will you be coming back soon
    you don’t know never know

    well i’m a man of many wishes
    i hope my premonition misses
    but what i really feel my eyes won’t let me hide
    cause they always start to cry
    cause this time could mean goodbye

    lately i’ve been staring in the mirror
    very slowly picking me apart
    trying to tell myself i have no reason
    with your heart

    just the other night while you were sleeping
    i vaguely heard you whisper someone’s name
    but when i ask you of the thoughts you’re keeping
    you just say nothing’s changed

    well i’m a man of many wishes
    i hope my premonition misses
    but what i really feel my eyes won’t let me hide
    cause they always start to cry
    cause this time could mean goodbye goodbye
    oh i’m a man of many wishes
    i hope my premonition misses
    but what i really feel my eyes won’t let me hide
    cause they always start to cry
    cause this time could mean goodbye
